Application led .Tune 24,

This invention relates to a vanity case, and has for an object toprovide an improved construction wherein desirable attachments 7nay beprovided inthe interior oi' the case,

A ncluding a specially formed lip-,stick holder which is readilyaccessible when the case is open. n

Another object of the invention is to pro ride a vanity case, whereinthe lipstick is 1G carried by a holder connected with the case in such amanner that the lipstick may be removed and used without molesting thecase. A further object, more specilically, is to orovide a lipstickholder for vanity cases, wherein the holder is formed with a knuckleforming part of thehinge of the vanity case and with additional securingvmeans for connecting the holder with one section of the `vanity caselso as to swing therewith.

In the accompanying drawings,-

Figure 1 is a plan view of a vanity case disclosing an embodiment of theinvention, the same being shown open;

Figure 2 is an edge view of the structure shown in Figure 1, the samebeing on an enlarged scale;v

Figure 3 is a sectional view through Figure 1 on the line 3 8, the samebeing on substan- 4'ially the same scale as Figure 2 i 3G Figure 4 is asectional view similar to Figure 3 but with the lid closed;

Figure 5 is a perspective view of the structure shown in Figure 1;

Figure 6 is a bottom plan view of the lipstick holder;

Figure 7 is a plan view with certain parts broken away of the lipstickcasing with the lipstick mounted' therein.

Referring to the accompanying drawings bv numerals, 1 indicates what maybe termed the body of the casing, and 2 the lid, While 3 indicates thelipstick holder. The vanity case has been shown substantially rectangu-1-ar in shape but it may be formed in some other manner and providedwith different articles. In the drawings a mirror 4 is mounted in thelid 2 and is held in place by the friction of the side walls 5 and 6,althoughy other fastening means could be provided without 50, departingfrom the spirit of the invention.

'Ih e bodyA 1 is provided with a tray 7 containing powder andasecondtray or compartment Scontainingrouge or other Vrdesired cosmetic.The body 1 and `lid 2 are vconnected by a suitable. hinge 9, Abut informing the hinge the knuckle is omitted, so that the knuckle 10 formedon `the holder Sgmay be inserted and held in place by the pintle `ofhinge 9. In this waythe vholder 3 is pivotally connected with the case,butto prevent the holder 3 from swinging independently otA the lid 2, aspur 11is pressed out of theA holder, said spur projecting beneath theYend of the mirror4, as shown in Figure 4, This anchors the holder atthis point, and as thev same held by the pintle of hinge 9 noindependent movement ofthe holder can take place.. The holder isnaturally of substan-f` tiallyfthe same shapeas the lipstick and isyformed withan openend 12 and a closed end 13. A slot 14 extends fromopen yend 12 inp wardlya short distance so as to accommodate the pin orthumb member 15 which is connected with the metal-tip 16 carrying thelipstick 17. '.The lipstick 17 and the tip 16 are slidably mounted in alipstick casing 18.- This casingis provided with a closed end y19 andan* open end 2O lwith a slot 21 extending from the open end to near theclosed end. This slot permits the pin 15 to slide back and forth so thatwhen this casing is 'held by the hand the users thumb may press the pin15 to eject or withdraw the lipstick. Pin 15 is of suflicient length toextend through slot 14 so that the casing 18 and parts carried therebymay be withdrawn from the holder 3. By providing this construction aperson may withdraw the holder 18, partly eject the lipstick 17 and usethe same without disturb-v ing holder 3. This is desirable, in that theperson may hold the vanity case so as to use the mirror 4 and at thesame time. use the V lipstick. As shown'particularly in Fig. 5. theholder 3 is elliptical in cross-section and fits in the rounded part ofthe lid 2. It also lits in the rounded part of one end o1' body 1, sothat when the lid is closed the parts will appear as shown in Fig. 4.When Vthe lid is open the lipstick is ready yfor use,

as well as the mirror.

What I claim is 2- l. A vanity case, comprising a body, a lid hingedthereto, a lipstick holder formed with means for engaging the pintle ofthe hinge :onnecting the lid and body and With an eX- tension, and alock engaging said extension for preventing independent swingingmovement of the lipstick holder.

2. A vanity case, including a body, a lid, .t hinge connecting the lidwith the body, a lipstick holder positioned at one side of said hingeformed With an extension presenting a hinged knuckle, said knuckleforming part of said hinge, and means carried by the lid coacting withthe holder for preventing independent swinging movement of the holder.

3. In a vanity case, a lipstick holder comprising a substantiallytubular casing open at one end and closed at the opposite end, saidcasing on one side being formed With a hinged knuckle and on the otherwith a pressed-out spur and means engaging said spur for preventingindependent movement of the holder.

4. A vanity case, including a body, a lid hinged to the body, means inthe body carrying cosmetics, av mirror carried by the lid, and a.lipstick holder carried by the lid adjacent the hinge, said lipstickholder being formed with means interlocking with the. hinge and with amember extending beneath the mirror, whereby the holder is held againstindependent movement.

5. A vanity case, including a body, a lid hinged thereto and a lipstickholder, said holder being formed with means interlocking with the pintleof the hinge connecting the body and lid, and an integral projectionextending toward the outer end of the lid, and a mirror carried by thelid overlapping said extension, whereby the holder is held againstindependent movement.
